   > Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film one out of four stars and said, "There is not a trace of human emotion in it. To call the characters cardboard is to insult a useful packing material".

   
   Ok, now I'm intrigued.

     @clacke As usual, Ebert is a nearly perfect anti-recommender to me. The Spirit's not perfect, but it does accurately capture the comics, and a whole tone of pulp adventures, and it's a fun story. It's very much Frank Miller-imitates-Eisner, so people who don't like either will be unhappy.
